Up for auction: Ski mansion in Greene County

I reported earlier today on the $1.45 million sale price of an auctioned home in Loudonville. So check out this humble housemansion chateau in Windham, Greene County (map), which is up for auction on Saturday.

The newly constructed house in the Copper Ridge subdivision, “an exclusive mountainside community” near the Windham ski resort, was originally on the market for $5.9 million, but there is no minimum bid. The property includes five acres, 11,000-square-feet of living space, seven bedrooms, and eight full bathrooms. (If there’s an interesting back story explaining why the house is up for auction, I don’t know it.)

The on-site auction is scheduled for 11 a.m. A photo gallery of images is below (you may have to click on the headline above for the gallery to load), and more info about the auction is available here. (Images via Concierge Auctions)(More…)

This looks like a great place but what rich person would spend so much time skiing that they would need this huge house near 2 ski hills and othing else. Even if I could afford it I wouldnt want to live there

A house like this one is too small for the private jet crowd, there is no room for the staff, the pool is too small, and it only has a two car garage. The people that would buy this house probably still have to work, so they can’t be too far from the city. From Windham, you can be back in Manhattan in under three hours to close a deal.
